From the warm welcome with Sherry in our rooms to Mark's hearty delicious breakfast, we had a lovely stay at Barriemore. Very clean and large room and bathroom with one of the best sea views watching the Sun set behind the hills of Kerrera island. Mark and Jan made our stay very comfortable and always asked if we needed anything. They even prepared a breakfast bag for both of us on our departure day as we had a very early start. Oban was always special for us as this is where my partner and I first met but now its even more special as we got engaged during this trip. And Mark and Jan helped make us feel the most comfortable adding great memories to the trip. Thank you guys.
That we stayed only 2 days...Lol

This venue is something else and is more like a family home. The staff were 1st class, couldn’t do enough for you and made you feel you were meant to be there. I can’t recommend this place highly enough. I will certainly recommend the Barriemore to our friends and we will be back in 2020. Mark and Jan are excellent hosts.
Had to come home far to soon!

Lovely large rooms, excellent breakfast and hospitality. Mark makes you feel at home! Enjoyed a quiet stay and the 20 minute walk to the ferry was the perfect distance. Really wonderful overall!
